The stunning location, the view from our room of the beach, the staff, the facilities ie. gym

Irene United Kingdom

everything great except restaurant Maritana - avoid at all costs!

William United Kingdom

I liked that they kept the old world charm with any upgrades. . . There didn't seem to be a ton of staff around; definitely not enough cleaning staff. When I asked for a small rate reduction because of the size of the room, no cleaning service, and the fact that I knew people there who were assigned a huge suite for what I paid for my tiny room, the answer was a very flat "NO"... Couldn't budge. Good restaurants. . . Hotel rates should decrease when they have less to offer than before... Their rates are very high... and they are unapologetic as to their lack of staff.

Krissi United States

Breakfast on the patio was both delicious and relaxing. Such a lovely way to start the day!

Lorrie United States

The restaurants and bar.Food was good and I am gluten intolerant and the waiter was able to get me gluten free options.
